# Lido stETH
Products > Yield Tranches > Guides > Live YTs guides > Lido stETH
This tutorial will guide users in the process of depositing new funds on the Lido YTs on top of the stETH market.
To deposit into the stETH YTs, follow these two steps:
1. Use [Lido](https://stake.lido.fi/) to stake your ETH
2. Deposit Lido LP tokens in Lido's stETH YTs
## Ethereum
### 1. Use Lido to stake your ETH
1. Visit [Lido.fi]() to stake your ETH
2. Once staked, the user will own the stETH LP tokens
### 2. Deposit Lido LP tokens in Idle's YTs
After having staked ETH on Lido, the user can go back to Idle and enjoy the different risk-return profiles of the Yield Tranches.
* Choose the Yield Tranches side of preference selecting either *Senior* or *Junior Tranches* under the *Earn* section in the top-bar
{% hint style="info" %}
Using **Senior Tranches**, in case of hacks or losses, users' funds will be covered by the funds deposited in the Junior Tranche.
Using **Junior Tranches**, in case of hacks or losses, users' funds will be employed first to cover Senior depositors' funds and then shared among Junior users.
{% endhint %}
1. Type in the amount to deploy on the Tranche in the right panel
2. Click on *Approve* to approve the token spend limit (1st Tx)
3. Once the spending approval is confirmed, the user will be able to deposit stETH Lido LP tokens
4. Click on *Deposit* to deposit the funds (2nd Tx)
5. The user will receive back `wstETH-LP` tokens for the asset deposited depending on the side of the PYTs chosen (AA\_wstETH-LP for Senior, BB\_wstETH-LP for Junior)

# Agent Instructions

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://docs.idle.finance/products/yield-tranches/guides/live-yts-guides/lido-steth.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
